2$ VI.
Ah, but the life they gave Is not shut in the grave : The valorous spirits freed Live in the vital deed !
Marble shall crumble to dust.
Plinth of bronze and of stone, Carved escutcheon and crest — Silently, one by one, The sculptured lilies fall : Softly the tooth of the rust Gnaws through the brazen shield : Broken, and covered with stains, The crossed stone swords must yield : Mined by the frost and the drouth, Smitten by north and south, Smitten by east and west, Down comes column and... all !
But the great deed remains.
VII.
When we remember how they died — In dark ravine and on the mountain-side, In leaguered fort and fire-encircled town, Upon the gun-boat's splintered deck, And where the iron ships went down — d by Google 26 SPRING IN NEW ENGLAND.
How their dear lives were spent, In the crushed and reddened wreck, By lone lagoons and streams, In the weary hospital-tent, In the cockpit's crowded hive — How they languished and died In the black stockades — it seems Ignoble to be alive !
